SCOTUS 1981 1986 Majority Powell JoinMajority Burger, Brennan, O Connor Concurrence Burger Concurrence2 Marshall in the judgment of the court only Dissent Rehnquist JoinDissent White and Stevens Part I only Dissent2 Stevens NotParticipating Blackmun LawsApplied Pacific Gas & Electric v. PublicUtilities Commission , Case citation 475 U.S. 1 1986 , was a court case involving the requirement that San Francisco based public utility Pacific Gas and Electric Company carry a message supplied by a public interest group in rebuttal to the messages the utility supplied in its newsletter which it placed in its billing envelope. The rationale used by the regulatory agency was that the space in the billing envelope which could have material added that did not increase postage, belonged to the ratepayers rather than the utility, thus the commission could order the utility to allow other groups to use that space subject to restrictions. The U.S. Supreme Court found the order of the California PublicUtilities Commission to be Constitutionality unconstitutional , as the right to speak includes the right not to carry messages one disagrees with. As the court stated, the choice to speak includes within it the choice of what not to say. This is one of the cases which has essentially granted, with extremely limited exceptions, the absolute right of a publisher to choose not to carry messages it does not agree with.

nocitations date September 2009 image The Drunkard s Progress Color.jpg thumb right 300px The Drunkard s Progress A lithograph by Nathaniel Currier supporting the temperance movement, January 1846. The Methodist Episcopal Church Board of Temperance, Prohibition, and Public Morals was a major organization in the United States American temperance movement which led to the introduction of prohibition in 1920. It was headed for many years by Clarence True Wilson. The Methodist Episcopal Church South had a similar agency called the Board of Temperance and Social Service, with which Bishop James Cannon, Jr. was long associated. The Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals constructed the Methodist Building on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC in the 1920 s to further increase its influence and lobbying power in public policy matters regarding alcoholic beverage s. After ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution established Prohibition , the Methodist Board promoted its aggressive enforcement. It also attempted to eliminate any criticism or opposition to what many called the Noble Experiment. In 1925, it charged that vaudeville acts and comic strips were being used to dispense wet anti prohibition propaganda in New York City, which it called a foreign city, run by foreigners for foreigners according to foreign ideas. The Methodist Board was dissolved after a merger of Methodist denominations in the 1960s and the united church created the General Board of Church and Society GBCS . The 1965 Trust law trust contract requires all principal and income from the trust s assets to be used exclusively for work in the areas of temperance and alcohol problems. Some United Methodists have pointed out that the GBCS corporation is funding programs on antiwar, environmental, technological, and dozens of other activities unrelated to reducing the consumption of alcohol.
